I’m watching Jim Sheridan’s documentary about the Sophie Toscan du Plantier murder in Schull on Sky. It’s very good.

Half-arsed arguments tacked together by smug white uni-kiddie know-alls might work for other uni-kiddie know-alls. The rest of us prefer to come to our own conclusions.

But thanks for the effort. Really.

PICKLE RIIIIICK!!!!

Rick and Morty is back. There's never really a way to describe a fi en episode, suffice to say it was a solid 7/10 start to the 5th season.

'Intelligence' probably a couple of years old. Canadian series, I like it. :thumbup:

Has an earthy feel to it.

Quite enjoying Clarksons Farm on Amazon at the moment. He has toned down the bombastic top gear persona and it's actually quite informative! The various farm hands and walk on extras quite amusing !

The funniest parts of the show sometimes is all the stuff (customers and staff) going on in the background or in between scenes.

My wife comes from a farming family and is loving it. It is getting a lot of positivity from the farming / rural community in general.

Yeah, and its clearly written by someone has worked in retail, because way too much of it seems like real disphit custimer actions.

Only 3 episodes into Bosch (first series) so no spoilers if you can help it!

Does each series primarily follow one plot line?

There’s a primary plot and his private life and career politics kicks along in the background.

Entertaining show let down by some awful acting.

Way behind on new stuff, the Big Sick is a thumbs up.

Professor T trying a bit too hard and paper thin plots but watchable enough.

Succession trailer looks great which is encouraging.

Digging into the Bureau after recommendations from people I trust. Into the second season and it's delivering in spades. Not on any of the big streamers as far as I can tell.

Finally bothered to watch See on Apple TV+. It's a fair bit better than the reviews made out. Good fun and looking forward to S02.

Tried Morning Wars, but couldn't get through the first episode.

Checking out Evil now. Pilot was decent enough. Will give it a go.

I decided to rewatch the wire due to the lack of good new box sets. Season 1 episode 2 is basically all about getting a photo of Avon Barksdale. Things have changed a lot since this was filmed 20 years ago.

For people who love Gomorrah, there is an Italian mafia series on Netflix called Suburra: Blood on the Streets of Rome. It doesn't touch Gomorrah, but still very enjoyable :thumbup:

i'vet tried a couple of times to watch it ; latest one was this weekend - admittedly it was late at night after quite a few pints watching the Lions but I've given up on it ; I just see a reworked old story line fairly poorly acted out

It holds up flawlessly. I recently rewatched the sopranos alongside the talking sopranos podcasts and it too held up very well. Can’t decide between the two of them which one is the greatest
